The Advocate General of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), Maciej Szpunar, has issued a non binding opinion on the case in which the CJEU is asked whether Uber is an information society services provider or a transportation company. Szpunar is of the view that the service offered by Uber cannot be cannot be classified as an information society service, as the service amounts to the organisation and management of a comprehensive system for on-demand urban transport. He therefore recommends that the Court's answer to the question at hand should be that the service offered by Uber must be classified as a service in the field of transport. Spuzar concludes that Uber is subject to the conditions under which non-resident carriers may operate transport services within EU member states.
